[Opinions] Re: Conrad and Joseph.
I find Conrad more approachable than Magda TBH...Magda has always seemed like a cold harsh name to me. Conrad is a strong, solid and honest sounding name to me. I dunno...maybe I'm being influenced because a good friend of mine is Konrad and he is an awesome person. I still love Joseph for you guys! It would be a shame not to use it. Have you thought about Abel? I think it has a similar vibe to Miriam, Joseph, Magda and Nathaniel. It also fits the Biblical criteria.

One of my good school friends had a brother named Conrad. So, for me it's just an ordinary name. Our older son is named Joseph. Silas? (as in Paul and..)

I loooove Silas.Xander is okay with it. My dad and uncle came up with silage right away. Living in farm country that is a bit of a worry - it's a common word. :-DI'm still going to add it to the list, though. That's all I'm really doing right now - just gathering up a list. I swear I must be one of the most anal retentive people ever. We've decided to wait two years to really try again for a baby, I need to have a list set aside. We're moving no sooner than September yet I'm already organzing our stuff and packing it. :-D

I think personal influence has a lot to do with it, actually.I know a Magda and I love her, but I've never met any Conrads. I suspect if I had I'd like it more.And I love Abel. It's one of the names X comes and goes on. One minute he likes it, the next he doesn't. I need to find a book he'd read with an Abel as a main character, I think. :-D
